Granting and denying individual android app permissions was never thought of as a good idea from developers point of view and from app’s functioning point of view, there was always a risk of breaking up the app if permissions are not granted in entirety hence android app permissions manager never allowed granular app permissions to be changed.

As this feature would be a blessing for users, Android users had always hoped it being included in every new upgrade of Android and at last Google has brought it to its users in Marshmallow. And the best part is that this feature is being included with such proficiency that it brings no overhead burden to the developers and there is no risk of app getting crashed.
